The Grid supports data binding. The
dataSource
property can be assigned with the instance of
DataManager to bind remote data.
The DataManager, which will act as an interface between the service endpoint and the Grid, will require the below
minimal information to interact with service endpoint properly.
DataManager->url - Defines the service endpoint to fetch data
DataManager->adaptor - Defines the adaptor option. By default, ODataAdaptor is used
for remote binding.
Adaptor is responsible for processing response and request from/to the service endpoint.
@syncfusion/ej2-data package provides some predefined adaptors which are designed to interact with
particular service endpoints. They are,
UrlAdaptor - Use this to interact any remote services. This is the base adaptor for all remote based
adaptors.
ODataAdaptor - Use this to interact with OData endpoints.
ODataV4Adaptor - Use this to interact with OData V4 endpoints.
WebApiAdaptor - Use this to interact with Web API created under OData standards.
WebMethodAdaptor - Use this to interact with web methods.
In this demo, remote data is bound by assigning service data as an instance of
DataManager to the
dataSource
property.
More information on the data binding can be found in this
documentation section.
